A girl on her first solo adventure ✈️

26th Nov: My First Solo Travel Emotions were running high, but I managed to pack them all into my carry-on bag. And of course, who wouldn’t be excited for their first international flight experience? I'd never been on a flight longer than 2 hours, so this was a whole new world. I kept pinching myself, just to make sure this was real – and yes, it was! Chennai to Frankfurt, here we go. The security check and immigration process were a breeze, and after a quick hour of waiting at the gate, I grabbed some water. Then came the best part—boarding the plane through the vestibule. It was huge, easily the largest and longest flight I’d ever been on. My mission? To find my seat. And, of course, there it was—my window seat. (All 7 flights on this trip had window seats, by the way—lucky me!) I could hardly contain my excitement for takeoff. I didn’t say it out loud, but there’s something undeniably magical about the moment the plane lifts off, no matter where you're headed. 10 hours of so...

2024: A YEAR THAT REDEFINED ME!

-
Image
2024 has truly been a year of transformation for me. It’s shown me what real change feels like. I’ve experienced every emotion imaginable—fear, joy, sadness, courage, excitement, curiosity, longing, and so much more.  Who would have thought my most stressful year would end in the blink of an eye? Who would have thought I’d finish my quota what once seemed impossible? That I’d board a solo 10-hour flight, visit the Eiffel Tower, or even fall in love with traveling, despite my former aversion? And who could have imagined that my brother-in-law would become a brother to me in every sense? And Christmas? Christmas, a celebration I’d never experienced before, brought me the most heartwarming memories this year (more on the Christmas markets and food in a later blog post). "Drastic" might be too strong a word, but I can't help but use it to describe a year that has redefined me. Let me take you on a quick ride through my thoughts. A few days ago, I was being appreciated for the...

Let's spill some beans?

People ask me why I stopped writing. Sometimes, it's not a sudden loss of interest; it's simply that nothing has ignited my creativity or captured my imagination to take a pen and wield.  Consider picking up one micelle from the flow: GOSSIP.  “I don’t gossip. Occasionally, I come across information or hear something and pass it on—kind of like a public service.” If you know RACHEL, you know this.  Despite understanding how harmful and toxic gossip can be, and that it undermines relationships and damages community culture, people still engage in it. It’s a psychological pattern I’ll never quite grasp. I'm not writing this as if I’ve never participated in gossip myself. I’ve experienced both sides—the giving and receiving ends—and neither is pretty. If you’re concerned about the latter, remember: let's normalize the fact that not everyone will appreciate or like you, and that gossip is a reality. The world is so vast that other people's opinions matter little. If you...

A minute to embrace. ❤

It's okay to vent out in your outlet. Have you ever felt you've failed at some friendships? Never had I been always lucky with this thing, because it never existed in some places maybe. But here, I'd like to tell you all about something I had been feeling a few minutes ago. Despite people banging in and out of my life, I do feel warmth to have been surrounded by people who are genuinely there for me through my pros and cons, smiles and tears. They put effort into the dandleboard to raise me higher, so aren't these individuals the ones I consider the truest of friends? That's when I discovered, that you don't need a crew, at times just one can make you feel it's sufficiently enough. It's enough to have one who would settle on you over everyone and where two of you can be incrementally revealing. At this juncture in my life, I would like to embrace the inner loop I have to dote on for the rest of my life together. I'm so appreciative of what you people...

Solitariness- into effecting!

-
Image
Hello people. It's so pronounced I have something very crucial to be blogged about.   A few days fall very heavily, this day is one among those which is possibly why I'm here with you all. So, it's a month of me being self-dependent with all my chores, and stresses. One cliched message coming into being on my part-> "Home is where your happiness lies". Frankly, I'm one among those who cuddle and shadow my immediate ones for a normal day to pass on. Never did I imagine having to spend an independent life for a span of days miles away/overseas from them. Fevers, monthly stresses both physical and mental I go through had all to be handled by myself, couldn't be more proud that merely 5% of these days went with intense and intolerant missings, rest with insights. So hard to get on to the fact, that I dare to cope and live a solo life yet the aches for being with family and spending time together is mandatory. Journey unscrewed potentials in me whilst coming...

11.59pm and Wild Realisations!

-
My dad back then asked me "How much sense do you think exact 12' o clock wish makes?" and still asks. Here's me growing up with this ironically answerable uncertainty. I'm wildly sincere to know how from twiddling the thumbs the day before the birthday and glancing at the raven screen of the phone until 11.59 knowing the subsequent minute you're gonna get overflows of messages and rings from people you foreknow to sleeping at 11 shows your GROWTH. With not fancying 12' o clock wishes or social media flood now, you feel so good and convinced on figuring out the fact you're adulting and don't sigh for those little things that indeed you thought will put your day together. Now, uncertainty answered with maturity. Perhaps, this birthday is the one I was least keen about with expectations, not sure if that is why it went around out to be very delicate! Once you know it's just YOU who's fetching on the new track, it's all about you making you...

Dynamizing the spectrum!

-
Image
How well do you know about these two traits? INTROVERT AND EXTROVERT And do people exist in two extremes of that scale? We have never put an effort into becoming cognizant of what these two words mean and putting them in use only for the reason of being influenced by social media. We all must have drawn to one misconception that being active in social media is at one spectrum being an extrovert and not being active-> into the introvert scale, which just serves 10% right, not the totality. That "WE" doesn't exclude me, henceforth I'm here after squaring up to the fact. We must know that every particular being has both sides of these two extreme traits, with one ruling more than the other, all on proclivity. The psyches of human souls merely need a contoured idiosyncratic feature for indeed creating an identity for the people around us. Holding our uniqueness, the way of perceiving, judging, lifestyle, and energy are all put together, which is a mini complex world yo...
